Need gluten-free Rice/Almond Milk

Anyone know which brands of Rice Milk and Almond milk are safe? I have been using the Trader Joe's Rice milk but am not sure if its safe...I assume so since the label says Gluten Free and the equipment it is made on also processes fish and nuts, but again not sure

I love, love, love the new almond milk by Silk. t's right next to the soy milk in the refrigerator section. It is the best one I've had so far and I've also regularly used Almond Dream and Blue Diamond, both are gluten-free.

I know the Rice Dream does but don't know about the Almond. Pacific makes a for sure safe Almond milk.

The Almond Dream I have says gluten-free on the side.

Problem is that it contains carageenan - not good for sensitive stomachs

I do great on Almond Breeze by Blue Diamond. Use the unsweetened Vanilla on my gluten-free oats in the morning, and use if for almost everything else, as well. No issues here.

I use Trader Joe's Rice Milk (vanilla flavor) & have had no problem with it.

All of Trader Joe's products say they're made on lines shared with wheat, soy, etc; I think they're just being thorough, & have not had any problems with their products.

You could always make your own almond milk, it's amazingly easy.

I like the Turtle Mountain coconut milk. Open Original Shared Link I find it more neutral tasting than the other alternative "milks". I drink the unsweetened. It really doesn't have a strong coconut flavor like you would expect so I think it would work in many things. I thought the carageean bothered me when I was drinking soy and almond milks, but it hasn't bothered me when I've had this coconut milk. My recent allergy test was positive for almond and soy so maybe it was those and not the carageean. I don't know how long I've had these two allergies.

I was looking at the Pure Silk Almond milk today and it says Lactose Free and soy free but not gluten free. I did contact them by phone and was told that as per the FDA guidelines they weren't required to put it on the label but that it is gluten free.

I don't know why they wouldn't put Gluten free! I told them they should for easier identification.

Almond Breeze is my favorite. Gluten, dairy, and casein free and the best flavor IMO of rice and nut milks.

I've tried the pacific and blue diamond almond milk and really don't like them after making my own. I just keep a big bag of almonds on hand and when I want it I blanch them, remove the skins and put it in the blender with filtered water. I then pour it into a jelly straining bag to drain and squeeze out the remainder of the liquid. I use 1 1/2 cup almonds to 4 cups water. I have not tried the silk yet.

Silk doesn't say gluten free because they do not perform the tests on it to ensure that it's safe. But, they do not process wheat in their facility, so they consider it to be gluten free.

I drink Silk Almond (unsweetened) milk everyday. I LOVE it! All of Silks products are gluten free. I called the company last year and I never had any problems with it. And I'm very sensitive.

Enjoy! :)

      Your frustration is completely understandable—after 13 years of strict gluten-free living and mostly normal antibody levels, it’s disheartening to still see biopsy evidence of lingering damage, especially without clear guidance from your GI. The subtle improvements (like "focal" vs. "patchy" changes) might suggest some healing, but the persistent villous blunting and lymphocytosis raise valid concerns about ongoing low-level inflammation, cross-contamination, or even refractory celiac disease (though your normal antibodies make this less likely). It’s especially frustrating when your symptoms (nausea, pain) are dismissed with generic advice, and communication feels like a game of telephone with nurses. Switching to a more engaged GI is a great step—someone who’ll actually discuss your biopsy results, explore potential hidden gluten exposures (e.g., medications, shared kitchens), and investigate other culprits (like SIBO, motility issues, or food intolerances that often overlap with celiac). Hang in there—you’re advocating for yourself the right way, and your dedication deserves answers, not canned responses. Hope the new GI provides the clarity you need!

      Thanks for the post on Vitamin D.  I have been living in south Florida and have been taking moderately higher doses of vit D. I am considering the Mushroom supplements and exporing Real Mushrooms, the brand. Not sure. If you have any thought, please share. I am curious about all things homeopathic.

      About 9% of celiacs react to the protein in oats (avenin) like they do gluten. The dairy protein casein is also known to damage small bowel villi like gluten does in some celiacs. In addition to that, many manufactured gluten-free food products contain difficult to digest polysaccharides like xanthan gum that are famous for causing digestive distress.

      Your  post is excellent. Thank you!! I have been trying to keep my diet "truly gluten free," but as you know, it's a  sneaky allergy, especially if you have a heightened sensitivity. So ironically, and sadly, no medical person told me to stay away from "gluten free oats.".  To my own fault, my lack of awareness led to years of eating  massive bowls of gluten-free oatmeal, sometimes twice a day. Awful right?  I am sure this added to the recovery time. I think I have been super vigilant for the last 12 months, but I wonder. I  haven't gone to a restaurant in a long time. My wife is frustrated with my social situation but truthfully I need to get this condition over with. Thanks again.

      Thank you so much for the caring reply. It really helps to be getting feed back on this. Thank you Celiac.com!  The skin lesions are in the last stage. Some are larger and take more time but much better. I look at photographs from 2 years ago and I shudder.  The stomach issues prevail,  although incrementally improved, even after a stay at MayoClinic this past year. Thank you again
